Lonely Planet review

It's rare in Dubai to find an adroit kitchen staff properly schooled in classic European technique, which is exactly why we love Amwaj. Seafood is the specialty on the French-derivative menu. Dishes may include torchon de foie gras with warm brioche toast, sautéed scallops fanned on the plate and topped with an elegant saffron-orange foam, or rack of lamb on eggplant compote with black-olive sauce.

The only drawback is the dining room: it overhangs a hotel lobby, and sound echoes upward. Request a table away from the railing. Vegetarians: look for the all-veg tasting menu.
